Social-imperialism
Social-imperialism are the imperialist systems which develop in revisionist states that have undergone a counter-revolution and restoration of capitalism. Ideologically, social-imperialism may be understood more broadly as "socialism in words, imperialism in deeds," with Karl Kautsky and the Second International supporting the imperialist wars of their countries and betraying proletarian internationalism.
Revisionist countries which are currently or historically social-imperialist include the Soviet Union following de-Stalinization and its restoration of capitalism in the 1950s and the People's Republic of China.
Social-imperialist states
Soviet Union (post-1956)
Following the death of Joseph Stalin in 1953 and initialization of "de-Stalinization" in 1956, the Soviet Union restored capitalism and transitioned into a social-imperialist state. The revisionist Soviet Union established itself as a hegemonic power and exploited neighboring revisionist states in Eastern Europe and elsewhere through organizations such as COMECON and the Warsaw Pact.[1]
